How many keepers do you have in your league?

Postby oldmanbean » Sun Mar 15, 2009 1:47 am

Sort of a poll question I guess. We had 10, switched to an choice of 8-12. Just curious as to where we stand numbers-wise

Thanks for your replies

Interesting, we are in line with your numbers. We used to have 12, but found we were closing in on keeping most of team. We went to 8, but draft became long. We have settled in on 10.

Help me out:

Up to 8 in one league and up to 7 in the other.

The league that was up to 8 was up to 10 until a couple of years ago. The rule was changed because it was simply too hard for new owners of bad teams to be able to compete.

We went from a 12 keeper 25 roster league with 10 minors to a dynasty format with 21 roster spots and 12 minors. This is going to be quite interesting and maybe tougher due to the smaller roster size. Trial and error this year for sure.

12-team mixed league with 8 major league and 5 minor league keepers. Nice mix I think.

10-team NL only league with 5 keepers. I don't think I'd want to go for more in this league because the draft is still very meaningful.

Thanks for the replies. We changed from 10 to the choices 8-12 because some people did not want more than 8, as their team really stunk, while others did a good job of low-end drafting and wanted to keep more. We made limits on those that kept other than 10: minimum $85, maximum $130.

Thanks for all the answers. I guess 10 is not a large number!
